Gillian Welch
1/5
It wasn’t offensive to the ears or anything I just could not connect to it in any way

3/5
The songs that attempt to be really impactful (which is most of them) kind of overdo it and they fall flat for me, but I do find the more straightforward ones to be more enjoyable
Pet Shop Boys
4/5
It's easy to write off a lot of 80s synth pop as having aged badly but I think this one has enough musical depth to keep it interesting
The xx
3/5
It's nice-sounding but there's not much more to it than that
The Who
4/5
Great showcase of how much more creative a rock band can be during a live concert than in the studio
Amy Winehouse
4/5
Yes
4/5
Great album but it does not reach the heights of Fragile and Close to the Edge
Tori Amos
2/5
Def Leppard
4/5
Just a bit of fun
The Velvet Underground
5/5
This album is raunchy, dirty, ugly, and smelly. 5/5
The Soft Boys
4/5
Never heard of this before it was a pleasant surprise how enjoyable I found it.
Also can people just do a quick google search before listening to these albums so that they are not needlessly listening to 30 bonus tracks before they rate a 36 minute album low for being "too long"
The Rolling Stones
4/5
Would have been a 5 if that one line in Stray Cat Blues didn't exist
Michael Jackson
4/5
Half great songs half meh songs
Sepultura
4/5
Tim Buckley
3/5
Most of these songs went on too long
The Velvet Underground
5/5
Idk it kind of makes sense for the songs about drug abuse and sadomasochism to sound rough
The Cure
5/5
First listen loved the vibes of this
Slipknot
3/5
Oasis
3/5
Some bangers with the rest being kind of annoying
Don McLean
4/5
One of the greatest songs ever made followed by some nice little folk tunes
Michael Kiwanuka
4/5
Sugar
2/5
Some of the songs are catchy but much of the album just blends with each other with a generic sound
Joni Mitchell

Alice In Chains
4/5
Air
4/5
Probably would be better in the context of the movie but I enjoyed the songs on their own nonetheless
Bon Jovi
2/5
Listening to a Bon Jovi song on the radio every once and a while is fun but a whole album? no
The B-52's

3/5
My Bloody Valentine
4/5
my bloody valentine fans when someone whispers into their ear while a power drill is turned on for 40 minutes straight (aka i enjoyed this)
The Sugarcubes
4/5
It's so jarring hearing Bjork singing in something that isn't hyperpop, but it still goes hard
George Michael
3/5
Roxy Music
3/5
The first half was kind of lame but the second half was actually really cool with more varied tracks
Pixies

The second half seemed to have songs that I recognized more, those being really good compared to a pretty meh first half of the album
Heaven 17
4/5
funky
Songhoy Blues
4/5
I think the instrumentals can be seen as generic blues rock that’s nothing to write home about, but the combination with traditional African music styles makes this a really cool and unique listen
Anthrax
5/5
Used to love a bunch of these songs when I had a metal phase and they still hold up for me
Led Zeppelin
5/5
The best rock albums have a song where they're just like "yeah here's the drummer doing his thing"

i got halfway through a different royal albert hall album from 1966 with the same track list before realizing it was the wrong album and then switched to the correct album which isn’t much different. moral of the story is i am insane but these songs are quite nice so i don’t mind listening to them again

It’s hard to rate something like this with it stemming from such a different cultural context than I’m used to, so I can’t really think about this the same as the 50th britpop album that Dimery included in the list.
